These hot honey brussels sprouts are the best side dish to compliment any meal. They aren’t too spicy but pack enough punch to add a little flavor to a meal. You only need 5 ingredients to make these! I love making them to eat on their own or to pair with grilled chicken, salmon, etc.

Vegan Buffalo Brussels Sprouts

Buffalo Brussel Sprouts (paleo, vegan)

I always accidentally type brussel sprouts instead of brussels sprouts, anyone else? I definitely always say brussel sprouts, I think that double s back to back is tricky to say! Anyways, these vegan buffalo brussels sprouts are perfectly spicy and pair with a lot of different meals. I like to pair with chicken or salmon! I keep the flavor of the protein simple so that way it doesn’t mess with the flavor of these brussels sprouts.

The hot honey is a little spicy but not too spicy. You can use regular honey if you aren’t into the spice though! It’s a fun way to elevate your cheese board or appetizer game.
